Observer-based tuning of two-inertia servo-drive systems with integrated SAW torque transducers
This paper proposes controller design and tuning
methodologies that facilitate the rejection of periodic load-side disturbances applied to a torsional mechanical system while simultaneously compensating for the observerâs inherent phase delay. This facilitates the use of lower-bandwidth practically realizable disturbance observers. The merits of implementing full- and reduced-order observers are investigated, with the latter being implemented with a new low-cost servo-machine-integrated highband width
torque-sensing device based on surface acoustic wave
(SAW) technology. Specifically, the authorsâ previous work based on proportionalâintegralâderivative (PID) and resonance ratio control (RRC) controllers (IEEE Trans. Ind. Electron., vol. 53, no. 4, pp. 1226â1237, Aug. 2006) is augmented with observer disturbance feedback. It is shown that higher-bandwidth disturbance observers are required to maximize disturbance attenuation over the low-frequency band (as well as the desired rejection frequency), thereby attenuating a wide range of possible frequencies. In such cases, therefore, it is shown that the RRC controller is
the preferred solution since it can employ significantly higher observer bandwidth, when compared to PID counterparts, by virtue of reduced noise sensitivity. Furthermore, it is demonstrated that the prototype servo-machine-integrated 20-N · mSAWtorque transducer is not unduly affected by machine-generated electromagnetic
noise and exhibits similar dynamic behavior as a
conventional instrument inline torque transducer
Observer based tuning techniques and integrated SAW torque transducers for two-inertia servo-drive systems
A controller design and tuning methodology is proposed that facilitates the rejection of periodic load-side disturbances applied to a torsional mechanical system, whilst simultaneously compensating for the disturbance observer's inherent phase delay, thereby facilitating the used of lower bandwidth, practically realisable, disturbance observers. The merits of implementing both a full- and reduced order observer, is investigated, with the latter being implemented with a new low-cost, high-bandwidth torque sensing device based on surface acoustic wave technolog
SAW torque transducers for disturbance rejection and tracking control of multi-inertia servo-drive systems
The paper proposes a resonance ratio control (RRC) technique for the coordinated motion control of multi-inertia mechanical systems, based on the measurement of shaft torque via a SAW-based torque sensor. Furthermore, a new controller structure, RRC plus disturbance feedback is proposed, which enables the controller to be designed to independently satisfy tracking and regulation performance. A tuning method for the RRC structure is given based on the ITAE index, normalized as a function of the mechanical parameters enabling a direct performance comparison between a basic proportional and integral (PI) controller. The use of a reduced-order state observer is presented to provide a dynamic estimate of the load-side disturbance torque for a multi-inertia mechanical system, with an appraisal of the composite closed-loop dynamics. It is shown that the integrated formulation of the tuning criteria enables lower bandwidth observers to be implemented with a corresponding reduction in noise and computational load. The control structures are experimentally validated via a purpose designed test facility and demonstrate significant improvement in dynamic tracking performance, whilst additionally rejecting periodic load side disturbances, a feature previously unrealisable except by other, high-gain control schemes that impose small stability margins
Improved performance of motor-drive systems by SAW shaft torque feedback
The paper describes the application of a non-contact, high bandwidth, low cost, SAW-based torque
measuring system for improving the dynamic performance
of industrial process motor-drive systems. Background to
the SAW technology and its motor integration is discussed
and a resonance ratio control (RRC) technique for the
coordinated motion control of multi-inertia mechanical
systems, based on the measurement of shaft torque via a
SAW-based torque sensor is proposed. Furthermore, a
new controller structure, RRC plus disturbance feedback
is proposed, which enables the controller to be designed to
independently satisfy tracking and regulation
performance. A tuning method for the RRC structure is
given based on the ITAE index, normalized as a function of
the mechanical parameters enabling a direct performance
comparison between a basic proportional and integral (PI)
controller. The use of a reduced-order state observer is
presented to provide a dynamic estimate of the load-side
disturbance torque for a multi-inertia mechanical system,
with an appraisal of the composite closed-loop dynamics.
The control structures are experimentally validated and
demonstrate significant improvement in dynamic tracking
performance, whilst additionally rejecting periodic load
side disturbances, a feature previously unrealisable except
by other, high-gain control schemes that impose small
stability margins
